Known Issues

Adobe applications and 64-bit compatibility

When you upgrade to the latest version of macOS 10.13.4 or launch Acrobat or Acrobat Reader for the first time on the latest versions of macOS High Sierra, you may see a warning message that indicates Adobe software needs to be optimized for better performance.

This is due to some 32-bit components that Adobe is working to address in the future. Note that no action is required from you at this time and your applications will still run as normal.
